Hey Hey!So Jihan and I are out all day at a super secret photo shoot. I’m not sure yet if I can tell you what it is, but if I get clearance, I’ll be tweeting it up! I’m out all day at an alter ego shoot shot by photographer Derek Blanks for Essence Magazine!! The shoot is scheduled to take alll day long, which means Mail Bombs are getting solved…nowish.Let’s do it to it.First up Mo says, “Where can I find the shoes Zoe Saldana is wearing in this picture?”“… The thin heel and ankle strap are hot.”The perennially chic Saldana paired this Rena Lange Spring 2012 dress…With a $845 pair of Christian Louboutin Vicky Jane Ankle Strap Pumps:The pumps look like they have a slim heel, but I think it’s an optical illusion created by the red sole blending in with the red carpet. At any rate, if you’re still into them, get them here.Akilah from Toronto says, “I saw First Lady Michelle Obama wearing this gorgeous coat during the recent White House Christmas tree lighting festivities.”“… Could you tell me who the designer is and the approximate cost? Love it!”According to the blog www.mrs-o.com, Michelle wore a wool and silk boucle coat by Duro Olowu from the designer’s Fall/Winter 2011 collection:Go’on head and support those black designers, Mrs. O! The coat’s price is not available on Olowu’s website, though you can inquire at www.duroolowu.com.Steve writes, “Could you please tell me who designed this leather jacket.”Hey! Not sure of the exact designer, but we found a few options that came close. Check it:More Yves Saint Laurent…Cherelle says, “I saw a post of Melanie Fiona in a recent spread in YRB Magazine.”“… I wanted to know who makes this attached dress, its cost and possible cheaper options. I don’t know but I can so see me wearing this come New Year’s Eve.”I’m not sure of the exact make, but you know a good way to find out? Buy the upcoming issue of YRB and check the credits. Magazines always list things like this. Getting a similar look is just as simple. Check out these options:More Laundry by Shelli Segal…In an e-mail titled, “I’VE PULLED MY HAIR OUT OVER THESE JEANS,“Shantae Shantae screams, “CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME WHO MAKES THESE JEANS; OR MADE THESE JEANS THAT DEREK J HAS ON IN THIS PHOTO”“… @ OK! Magazine’s Hollywood Sexy Singles Party??????????”Derek J hit us up on Twitter and indicated his jeans were by Joe’s. I haven’t been able to find anything similar, so my guess is he bedazzled them on his own.In a wardrobe query, Michelle says, “I bought this dress from Lulus.com for New Years Eve (which I discovered on this site and is now my favorite go to for unique styles).”“… I am not sure what type of shoes to wear with this. Please help!”Hey! Glad we introduced you to Lulus! For New Years, I’d say to pick up on the dress’s metallic accents with a pair of metallic shoes. Play with fun textures like glitter to really pop. Kelly Rowland shows how well purple and silver goes together:Update your look for winter in closed toe pumps with skin toned hose:More Nine West…Lastly, avid reader Zimbabwechic says, “So my fiance and I are eloping in less than 3 weeks, yay!

Do you have any ideas on which direction I can go bearing in my mind my time is limited and I am a curvy pear-shaped lady lol.”Congrats on your wedding!

It’s been ten years since Zac Posen showed his first collection at New York Fashion Week, and my, has he grown. He has become renowned the world over for his designs and has dressed some of the world’s most stylish and wealthy in the process. He’s shown consistent commitment to high-octane glamour, and continued his luxurious predilections with his Fall 2012 collection, full of dresses and separates molded to a woman’s figure and make-a-statement gowns.Posen took his inspiration from Japan, as witnessed by the opening look: Coco Rocha in a red and black peony jacquard peplum blouse and pencil skirt. The print continued on structured jackets and form-fitting dresses for bold looks, giving Fall an injection of florals.Larger-than-life obi belts accented navy blouse and trouser combinations, and cinched the waists of long statement-making coats.No collection would be complete without Zac Posen’s signature gowns. He presented a variety of options from duchesse satin bustier dresses in gold, caramel, and navy to mermaid gowns in pale pink and cherry red.This collection absolutely wowed me– I must say bravo to Zac Posen. I hope a slew of Hollywood’s finest leading ladies choose some of the gowns on the red carpet for the 2012 Academy Awards. I can totally see Viola Davis in the caramel bustier gown: it would look magical against her complexion.What do you think of Zac Posen’s Fall foray?#gallery-1 {margin: auto;}#gallery-1 .gallery-item {float: left;margin-top: 10px;text-align: center;width: 33%;}#gallery-1 img {border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;}#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {margin-left: 0;}/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */Photos: ELLE.com
